Rilynn has gotten so much stronger and confident this month. She even takes a few steps when your holding her hands. She is such a ham and shows off whenever she can. At restaurants, she stares at strangers until they make eye contact with her and then the flirting begins. This was the perfect age for a first Christmas. She had so much fun opening presents and getting lots of family time. Christmas eve mass went well, she almost made it through the whole thing. There were lots of little cousins around at my parents’ house Christmas eve and they had a cute gift exchange. Santa found Rilynn this year! Christmas morning as a parent is almost as much fun as it is as a kid. I don’t know how we could possibly get any more toys into our play area? And her birthday is next month!! She might just get boxes. I can’t believe next month we will have a 1 year old! How did the time go by so fast?
